Condoms
Cause CancerIn
2004 a
study was released from a well respected German research company that had
been studying the components of condoms. The results of the study were
simple, but profound. Nearly all condoms studied (including all major
American brands) contained high amounts of a toxic chemical known as
N-Nitrosamine which has been proven to cause cancer. This carcinogen was
banned from all children's toys and some other appliances, causing massive
recalls in the late 1990's. It is responsible for helping the latex in the
condom stay elastically and is often found in elastic-like material.
"If it's so toxic," you ask, "then why is it found in so many
materials but banned from others?" The answer is simple. N-Nitrosamine
is only able to enter your body through contact with your bodily fluids
(i.e. saliva, mucus, blood, semen, and vaginal discharge). So products that
contain N-Nitrosamine but are never intended to be in contact with these
substances are allowed. However, the big stink over this chemical came when
it was banned from baby toys because there is no way to limit which toys an
infant puts in her mouth, thus causing concern. The only other product that
was ever considered were kitchen appliances, like spatulas and rubber
spoons. With condoms only purpose being to come between 2 people and prevent
the passage of bodily fluids, shouldn't they be considered for the chemical
ban? The FDA said no, but only after testimony by big business condom makers
like Durex and Trojan about how much money they would loose from such a ban.

。。。

One last note: The researches in this study refused to release the
information to the public about which brands of condoms fell in the highly
toxic category, and which did not. Why? Because they are afraid of big
companies like Durex and Trojan suing them for their well-done research
which exposed their product's flaw. The big companies think that what we
don't know won't hurt us, but that is a lie. No matter what, a condom that
contains carcinogens will still give you cancer, whether you knew about it
or not. Don't play Russian roulette with your life by hoping that the condom
you're using is part of the 7% who passed…. Be smarter than that!
